I like the turn this thread has taken!
MLB: Red Sox
NFL: Patriots
NCAA: South Carolina (though any SEC team that isn't Georgia is also fine)

Also, to the little RVB conversation I saw, the Halo 2 era was the best. Last few seasons were still pretty good, but this season is just plain atrocious. And they've somehow made the graphics 10x worse from Season 9 to Season 10.

 

[Bregmann Roche]

Yeah, you would be a Gryffindor fan, Karl.

Yeah, yeah: Not only is he a fan of the Rad Cliffs on Valhalla, he's also a fan of Radcli...oh fuck it.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

MLB: Reds, Red Sox................alts: Braves,Rays
NFL: Falcons, Bengals.............alts: Pats, Broncs, Bucs
NCAA: Bama, Kentucky, FSU.....alt: USF, Few others

This seems against some kind of sports code.

 

[lybertyboy]

MLB: New York Yankees
NFL: Carolina Panthers
NHL: Carolina Hurricanes
NBA: Boston Celtics
NCAA: Duke Blue Devils

Come at me bros.

I liked when RVB was a comedy... now its like almost serious

 

[Karl2177]

Better than Hufflepuff. They couldn't even keep their players alive.

Football season must leave you in a deep, dark depression only to amazingly come out of it when basketball season starts.

Yeah, but you like a handful of teams in every sport. That's not really kosher. You have one per sport that is "your team" the others are fine to cheer for on occasion, but man.

Last year's CG was terrible, this years is okay, not great but okay. I don't know what you are smoking.

That's ok. You aren't missing much.

So...not an NFL fan then?

NBA: Miami Heat (I've heard enough bandwagon shit over the last 2 years, save your breath)

Uh-huh....

MLB: Mets

...I see. You're excused.

 

[The P of Poland]

You are seriously going to look at a picture of Agent Carolina's face from S9 and compare it to Agent Playdoh this year, and say the latter is better? Get out.

I have a bunch of teams I like as well. I don't really consider myself any less of a fan, I still keep up with my teams religiously.

I do have "mains" in each sport though.

Also, OT but the Microsoft Store totally fucked up my Borderlands 2 preorder. I cancelled it at like 3 this afternoon, then a couple hours ago I received 3 emails on a row, telling me my order was canceled, shipped, and telling me how to get a refund. 10 minutes ago, I checked the shipping status. I'm apparently getting it tomorrow. My debit card was supposed to be charged when it shipped, according to the email. Hasn't been charged yet. Haven't gotten my 1600 MS points code yet from the promo either. WTF

 

[nillapuddin]

Number 1 without a doubt teams:
Reds
Falcons
I cant pick one between NCAA though, football/basketball isnt fair

I just dropped some other teams in there who I dont mind cheering for as alternatives as bait to see if anyone else had a common interest

I have a bunch of teams I like as well. I don't really consider myself any less of a fan, I still keep up with my teams religiously.

yeah pretty much, I am hopelessly devoted to my number 1 teams, I just enjoy finding little niches where I can like other teams so I am always involved

One day I'll talk about how Robert Goulet was an instrumental part in Spartan Ops. One day.

Dad was a Yankees fan and NC doesn't have an MLB team. I was a child of the 80's and Larry Bird was my basketball Jesus. Duke has always been my ACC favorite.

 

[Fathead]

we need an area for all of us to proclaim our sporting affiliations so I know who to hate

Baseball: Anyone not named Yankees or Red Sox
Basketball: Jazz (I am forever sad)
NFL: Redskins (RGIII!)
NHL: Penguins (I miss you Mario)
MLS: Real Salt Lake
EPL: Arsenal (my first EPL game was an Arsenal game)
College Sports: I went to a Big Sky school so they suck. Have no real ties to any other than Duke sucks.

 

[ArchedThunder]

They are both shit. I'm talking about the animation, last year's was fucking terrible while this year's is okay.

The sins of the father need not be laid upon the children Ellis! I am happy to see that you've accepted Larry as your personal basketball Lord and Savior. The Duke pick remains inexcusable though.

 

[The P of Poland]

I thought Carolina looked great last year. Guess that's just personal opinion. My big problem is how last year they at least made an effort to be funny, this year they aren't even bothering to try. They've completely sidelined the BG crew that made the show in the first place; they feel like they have been kept around for no other reason than RT couldn't just work up the guts to kill them off yet. Mark my words, in 2-3 more years Red Army and Blue Army will be gone entirely.

 

[GhaleonEB]

I have never lived in a state with a professional sports team, which I find helpful since I can watch all sporting events without getting worked up about them.

 

[Hydranockz]

Are we 7 weeks from launch?

Oh snap, we are.

It's gotta be gold, you would think.

Who cares about pro? College football is the only thing worth watching.

You're only a Duke fan so when March Madness rolls around (and I whip your ass in bracket pools) you get to see Christian Laettner's buzzer beater. Every. Year.

 

[Bregmann Roche]

I'm assuming you mean the NBA season? That's 6 weeks away.

The freelancer stuff is dumb, but I think some of the regular RvB stuff this season is funny still. My problem is that they are trying to bring a serious plot into RvB and failing horribly. If they want to do any serious stuff they should do it like they did with season 6.

Yes

Neither have I. It was nice to be able to pick a team based on who I liked, not proximity.

 

[willow ve]

It would probably help my blood pressure and sleep patterns if I didn't actively cheer for certain teams, but I also wouldn't really care to watch much sports if I went about it that way. If we could only get a decent on demand, internet based, HD stream for all of the premiership matches I would be set. FFS we can't even get real highlights of 75% of the games.

For now it's up early on the weekend and off to the pub for breakfast and a match.

Agreed

Golly.

So I assume a skill based ranking system is out of the question? :/

Did they ever actually deny one? I've always thought they were simply stonewalling on the subject.

Edit: Southerner born and bred, shadow, of course I'm serious. Pros have no passion, nothing at stake.

 

[Tawpgun]

I like this.

NFL: Patriots
NHL: Bruins
NBA: Celtics
Soccer Club: Liverpool
Soccer International: Poland. Realistically speaking, Germany. And USA I guess.

#FunFacts

I've always been a big Pats fan.
Used to loosely like the Devils and Nets. Now I go to school in Boston, and picked up the Bruins and Celtics. Love the sports atmosphere here.
I've always liked Liverpool also, got it from my Dad, and only last year found out they are owned by the same guy who owns the Red Sox, making them like a Pseudo Boston team.

MLB: Unaffiliated. Find it boring.

MLG: Halo 2 Carbon. (keepin it Halo relevant)

 

[DeadNames]

I don't think so.

But you think they'd given it a little attention at this point.

And we still don't have our classic Halo theme :'(

 

[The Librarian]

Quickly skimmed the thread, saw this post:

That video reminds of how much I hated the dialogue in Halo 2 and 3. My god was it terrrible.

"To bring the Covenant back their BOMB!1!!!!!"

My reaction: The phrase "terrible dialogue" does not go in the same sentence with "Halo 2" unless the phrase "doesn't have" is in front of it.

BCS = College football is worthless shit.

 

[Zoso Achilles]

Anyone else still watch RvB?

Yeah I still keep up with it. Pretty sure I'm among the few here who likes the direction the show's taking lately.

I still watch it and I still like it. Rooster Teeth as a whole is just plain good.

Also,
NFL: Steelers
MLB: Indians
NBA: Cavs
All things NCAA: Ohio State
